Music is always in the background wherever I’m at. I find it vital to a relaxed, yet fun atmosphere. That said, I like all kinds of music also. About the only stuff you’re not gonna hear around me is heavy rap, heavy metal, or heavy elevator …

When it comes to writing the perfect pop hook in this day and age I really don’t think it gets any better than the outlandish Lady Gaga. Even without the unforgettable video, this song has this perfect ability to straddle bizarre and mainstream so expertly your not sure …

The tracks are more clean-cut and sound far better than any album A Day to Remember has …

Cannibal Corpse is a band in the ‘Death Metal’ genre. However I personally wouldn’t call them a band at all. I physically and mentally DESPISE them in any ways possible, and anyone who considers grunting an art form of singing seriously needs to open their eyes into the real …

Stovokor has some interesting sounds and I could relate to this death metal music but at one point, I did get “disgusted” and felt that the music were all kind of ill-tempered and definitely harsh and filthy. But I would like to take the benefit of the doubt …
